 Everton need a point to secure their UEFA Cup place and they have the real chances to pull it against the unmotivated Newcastle. On the other hand, Newcastle are ending yet another desperate season hoping this will be the last in a row…no, not likely.
Everton on the verge of UEFA Cup
For years now, Everton manage to get the top. They have become the team to count on when it comes to contention for Euro competitions. They even had a 4th place for a brief moment, but, to be honest, they belong somewhere between the 5th and the 8th place. A round to go and a point away from that 5th place exactly. They had the first match point against Arsenal last week. Moyes tried the defensive formation, leaving Yakubu on the bench with Andy Johnson alone in the offense. Tactics failed, Arsenal was somewhat fortunate to win, and they need to get back to their 4-4-2 formation with Yakubu and Johnson in the offense for the game with Newcastle. The absence of Cahill and Arteta will be the problem but they are still the favorites for the Sunday game.
Chelsea stopped the steaming Magpies
Newcastle were on the run of 7 straight unbeaten games before the game with Chelsea. Still, defeat at their St James Park by a team from the great four has put them back on their place. Keegan accepts that fact and he has already stated that their aim for the next season will not be to break the untouchable great four, but to win the 5th place. To be real, even that is a big of a bite for Newcastle. Not only have they been in the bottom of English soccer for years, but they are pretty uninteresting environment for the big stars, so Keegan will have to think of a way to lure a big name into joining Owen, all in his attempt to put Newcastle back in the position they used to hold. Viduka’s injury might ruin their plans. The Australian will be absent for several months, and for the game wit Everton, Keegan will also be without Emre, Burton and Given. The reality is they do not have too many motives, so it is a question how much to expect from them in this away fixture.
Betting verdict
We think that Everton are great favorites to win this game. They are playing at home turf, they are highly motivated, and, to be real, they are also the more quality team. It is interesting that it is the home side that always great advantage in their duels. In the last 5 season, both Everton and Newcastle failed to win away, so we don’t see a reason why this tradition should be ended in the closing round of the Premiership.
